Planning for Python for .NET beta 5
I'm trying to re-commit myself to communicating better about Python for .NET ;) To that end, here is the list of high priorities for beta 5:
  • Thread sanity. It seems that the PyGILState_* APIs in Python 2.3 were buggy and could lead to deadlocks. Completely coincidentally, there have been reports of deadlocks in Python for .NET as well ;)
  • Better public API for managed-language programmers. A lot of questions on the pythondotnet@python.org mailing list have been from C# and VB programmers trying to use my woefully underdocumented APIs. I hope to improve that for beta 5.
  • Did I mention thread sanity? :)
